It’s good for your health, spares the environment a trip’s worth of auto emissions, and is economical for both public and personal budgets. Cycling, with all its benefits, should not be reserved for the fit, the spandex-clad, and the daring. Cycling for Sustainable Cities shows how to make city cycling safe, practical, and convenient for all cyclists."--publisher's website. Other authors:  Buehler, Ralph. Pucher, John R..
